    Battle of Tarawa: Complete History of World War II’s Short but Brutal Tarawa Battle , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 128min
    On December 7th, 1941, the Japanese Navy Air Service attacked the American naval base at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. Nearly 2,500 Americans were killed. The next day, the United States responded by declaring war on Japan, officially entering WWII. On December 11th, war was declared on Germany and Italy, as well. The United States, which had resisted entering the global conflict for two years, couldn’t avoid it any longer.Two years later on November 20, 1943, the US embarked on its Central Pacific Campaign targeting Japan. 18,000 U.S. Marines traveled to the Tarawa Atoll in the Gilbert Islands, along with supporting troops, battleships, destroyers, and cruisers. Their mission? Take the tiny island of Betio, which Japanese troops had fortified. Its capture was an essential step in gaining enough strength to invade Japan itself.The battle of Tarawa was the first offensive in the region and the first time that the Americans faced significant opposition to an amphibious landing. While only 4,500 enemy troops guarded the base, the American military leaders knew it would not be an easy fight.They did not anticipate just how devastating it would be.The battle of Tarawa took place over 76 hours, but its impact changed the war. ungekürzt.

    Utmost Savagery: The Three Days of Tarawa , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 522min
    On November 20, 1943, in the first trial by fire of America’s fledgling amphibious assault doctrine, 5,000 men stormed the beaches of Tarawa, a seemingly invincible Japanese island fortress barely the size of the 300-acre Pentagon parking lots. Before the first day ended, one-third of the marines who had crossed Tarawa’s deadly reef under murderous fire were killed, wounded, or missing. In three days of fighting, four Americans would win the Medal of Honor and six thousand combatants would die. Now, Colonel Joseph Alexander, a combat marine himself, presents the full story of Tarawa in all its horror and glory: the extreme risks, the horrific combat, and the heroic breakthroughs. Based on exhaustive research, never-before-published accounts from marine survivors, and new evidence from Japanese sources, Colonel Alexander captures the grit, guts, and relentless courage of United States Marines overcoming outrageous odds to deliver victory for their country. Colonel Joseph H. Alexander (Ret.), a combat veteran who served in the Marine Corps for 28 years, is the author of six books and has helped produce 25 military documentaries. He lives in Asheville, North Carolina. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tom Weiner. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/blak/004136/bk_blak_004136_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Battle of Tarawa - World War II: A History from Beginning to End: World War 2 Battles, Book 13 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 58min
    Discover the remarkable history of the Battle of Tarawa...“It’s hell out there” was how one Marine described the assault on Tarawa, the US Navy’s first amphibious landing in World War II’s arduous Pacific campaign to bring the Empire of Japan to its knees. In 76 hours of fighting, the Marines lost nearly as many men as had died during the six months of the Guadalcanal campaign. Military intelligence had failed to take into account the reefs around Betio, the target of the assault, or the low tides which prevented transport vehicles from bringing the Marines safely to shore. As Marines were forced to wade 700 yards from the stranded vehicles to the shore, many of them were shot by enemy fire or drowned from the weight of their packs. When Americans back home saw the photographs of the bodies in the waters around Tarawa, they were horrified to realize that the route to Japan and victory would be strewn with the bodies of their young soldiers.Discover a plethora of chapters, such as:The Road to TarawaPreparing Tarawa's DefensesThe First Day of the BattleEyewitness Account of the Betio LandingThe Lessons and Legacy of TarawaAnd much more!So, if you want a concise and informative book on the Battle of Tarawa, simply scroll up and click the "buy now" button for instant access! ungekürzt.
